For Jimbo - Warning whining and a bad beat

[davidross]

OK Jimbo, you asked for it. I had a horrible session last night. Jumped back into 3/6 and was up around $150, before letting a maniac tilt me. I ended up dropping $450. Probably the worst I've ever played. I've been reviewing hand histories this morning and I made some dreadful plays. I also had some very bad luck. KK vs AA, AA vs KK and a K rivers. My favorite was a flopped full house (55 for me) 5-9-9 on the flop. A-T takes all the heat I can give him, then the turn and river are 9 - 9, making his A play.

But I wanted to share with you a hand I wasn't part of. The maniac who got under my skin was, and this was typical of his entire game. He would raise anything, and really push post flop. He would slow down on the turn and river, but never fold. Sounds like a dream opponent right? Except this kept happening.

Maniac is in EP and raises. This means abslutely nothing and everyone knows it. He gets one cold call and an aggressive LP who is in the same boat as me (tilting badly after some brutal beats) 3-bets. Maniac caps it (He never calls) and both of the others call.

*** FLOP *** : [ Ac 5s 7s ]

Maniac bets out and both call.

*** TURN *** : [ Ac 5s 7s ] [ 6d ]

Maniac bets and MP folds, but the LP calls. You have to call this guy, he plays every hand like this.

*** RIVER *** : [ Ac 5s 7s 6d ] [ 2s ]

Maniac bets and LP calls again.

LP had QQ

Maniac had..........3 - 4 for the runner runner baby straight.

You just had to laugh. He 4 bet that and bet every street.

Hope you enjoyed it Jimbo. I need to regroup...yet again.
